Manitoba’s NDP government has removed MLA Mark Wasyliw from its caucus after the party learned one of his business partners is the acting criminal defence lawyer for convicted sexual predator Peter Nygard.
Okay…it sounds like they were just looking for an excuse, no matter how flimsy.
As terrible a person as Nygard is, our justice system doesn’t function without someone to provide vigorous defense, and holding it against people who are essential to the proper functioning of our justice system seems a little flawed. If that’s a problem, then perhaps they should explore an alternative to the adversarial justice system, rather than vilifying members of that system.
